Re: old skool Punch 45 with JBL GTO938

It's 2 channels. I'm only asking because speakers are 2ohms, and most 6x 9 I've seen are 4ohms. Since 2ohm speakers, do they need to be wired a specific way? And last, any suggestions for a better 6x 9? I have an alpine CDE 124 SXM receiver.

Re: old skool Punch 45 with JBL GTO938

You shouldnt have any issues wiring direct.If the speakers are 2 ohm wiring direct @2 ohms should have that amp @2 ohm stable.For decent 6x9 speakers,its going to be up to your budget for Quality,though on a Budget scale,nothing wrong with Polk, or JBL,even Infinity for low budget/mainstream speakers.CDT are very nice speakers to take a look into.But that amp is a little monster,and shells out clean power verses Clipped distorted power.It will run a pair of 6.5 components along with another set of tweets very nicely @ 2ohms stereo of the HD series amp

That amp puts out about 500 @1ohm, so I'm thinking around 200-300 @2ohms before rise and 75-125 @4ohms. Those should be fine on it. How many channels is it?

Where are those specs at?This is how amps BLOW/get Cooked when you dont have a clue to Experiencing the amp in itself.Never has been 1 ohm stable,even bridged.Do some research before posting WRONG information,and costing another member a piece of equiptment

These were specs of a slightly different amplifier, and I just noticed it as I closed the web page, (these were more realistic power ratings). My mistake. Thanks audiobaun for bringing that to my attention.

Ive been around car audio since 87,maybe a little before..and have ran RF Hd amps in the past,in an entire setup.Some of the best Under rated amps to date.I mean, I still collect, and run OLd school amps for a reason,rather than some of todays amps,and unbelievably 15 yr old amps still shelling out the juice,with no issues.Zeds are my favorites by far

Re: old skool Punch 45 with JBL GTO938

Zed amps are super impressive, and almost all the old stuff is made with much more quality parts than the new stuff. I have a Lanzar Optidrive 100.2 old school zed amp and I love it(I'm actually looking to trade it and some cash for an amp) it's very impressive.
